A sample of the Lyrics, 'Leary, O'Reilly, O'Hare and O'Hara There's no one
as Irish as Barack O'Bama You don't believe me I hear you say But Barack's
as Irish As was JFK His granddaddys daddy Came from Moneygall A small Irish
village Well known to you all Toor a loo, toor a loo, toor a loo, toor a
lama There's no one as Irish As Barack O'Bama He's as Irish as bacon And
cabbage and stew He's Hawaiian he's Kenyan American too If he succeeds And
he has a chance I'm sure our Barack Will do Riverdance Toor a loo, toor a
loo, toor a loo, toor a lama There's no one as Irish As Barack O'Bama 

 

Their song was the main feature of an Ancesrty comference in Los Angeles
last month and as a result of that conference Barack Obamas campaign team
requested a copy of the song and commented that it was "very funny".

 

The band headlined the Americans for Obama concert in Moneygall Obamas
ancestral home. National news channels covered the concert and an American
Documentary maker did extensive interviews and recording of the band.
